Belfast man to stand trial next year
A doctor from Northern Ireland has been charged with causing the death of an Island man.
Dr Philip Windrum of Dundonald in Belfast will stand trial next year accused of causing death by careless or inconsiderate driving.
He was driving a car which collided a motorcyclist at Barregarrow on June the fourth.
Sixty-nine year-old former police officer Kevin Baker of Mines Road in Foxdale sustained multiple injuries in the incident and was pronounced dead at Noble's Hospital around four hours later.
Described in court as 'an exceptionally sad case', Dr Windrum had been watching a TT race earlier that afternoon and was leaving a property, edging his car out into the road when the collision took place.
The 47 year-old denies the charge.
A pre-trial review will be held at Douglas Courthouse on November 28.
